No... I don't think he'd ever sell that ... Certain things he was very enthusiastic about ... I think I was very lucky to get what I did ... He liked me straight away for some reason ... He said I had an honest face!  :)

I did a bit of digging on them....'like riding a piece of overcooked pasta' and ' like riding drunk without the expense of alcohol!' were the 2 quotes which stuck in my head!!  :-\ They made about 30,000 of them but was not a success! Mick Jagger was quoted as saying 'That's the ugliest fooking bike I have ever seen...I have to have one!'  :LolLolLolLol:

factory pilot:
Love it.. Top research  :D

There's a good story about that scooter... If anyone's interested come chew my ear on one of the rides  :daumenhoch:

Love it, looks like a great place with some real gems in there.

 I used to have that end cycling jersey back in the 80s, the Fagor one; Stephen Roche rode for that team after he won the treble, the Tour, the Giro and the World Road champs. Little bit of road trivia...
